HARVARD'S MJIILLI STIU'GGLK.
Iter Playern HatHy Crippled, nnil I, of P. Carried the Battle. PHILADELPHIA. Pa.. Nov. 21-Beaten. battered and shattered, but not disgraced. This is but the preface to the story of one of the grandest battles ever witnessed on a football gridiron. And Harvard has bowed to the University of Pennsylvania by a score of 8 to 6. To-night the wearers cf the red and blue are Jubilant. Their hopes, which were so rudely shattered by the Lafayette contingent, have again been raised to the hghest pinnacle. Alas, poor Harvard. The few hundred rooters who came over from Cambridge to cheer the crimson on to victory are sad. and yet. they have cause to rejoice. For where is the man, be ho ever so partisan, who would say that tbc sons of fair Harvard did not go down with flying colors or that they did not die game. Cruel fate seemed to follow Harvard, but even in the face of the rno3t discouraging circumstances, they never faltered, thtlr only thoughts, apparently, being the prospective, in fact, almost certain defeat, for their lines were fast becoming weakened by the terrible battering of the heavy men of old Pennsylvania and the pings of defeat which would come to them should their efforts Call. Every man played as though his life depended on the result of the game. There was that unison which comes only with thorough teaching; each man trying to help the other. Harvard's defensive work for a time was superb, but the awful battering their lino received from the heavy weights on the Pennsylvania team began to tell before the first half was finished, and many a delay was occasioned by a crimson warrior being stretched on the ra.s. For a time- the "faithful" who were urging thlr crimson-legged team on to a greater efforts seemed to falter, but the cheer was taken up by the red and blue followers. Thousands of Pennsylvanians shouted lustily for their crimson rivals, not because they hoped to see them win the contest, but because of the plucky fight they were putting up In the face of overwhelming defeat. The crimson eleven had gone into the battle with some of their best men in a crippled . condition, they bad fought their tlglit in the early stages of the game, and now were slowly but surely being driven baric to almost certain defeat. Jt was pitiable to hear Captain Wrightington calling on his men to "hold them boys," "break it up." and like expressions. The line would hold for two or possibly three downs. Then the red and blue would gain their distance, and it was but a repetition of the previous disaster. Harvard's lino stood the battering-ram process of Pennsylvania, for the Jim half, und It was In this half that the crimson )jnde their only touchdown. But in tho second half the physical condition o' the red and blue began to assert itself, and one by one were the Harvard cripples carried from the Held. The first to succumb was Johnny Hun lap, who was relieved by Llvermore; then Frank Shaw got mixed up In a Fcrtmmajce and Loueette was called on tt renter. A few minutes later Wheeler and Brown -were both injured, and their respective places were filled by Swain and Uibblee. Wheeler and Brown did not leave the game until Just before time was called. In their weakened condition the crimson wsu no match tor their opponents, and struggle as they would they could not stop the mas plays directed at their line. The Pennsylvania team as a whole deserves much praise and but little censure. Kvery player was a star, and it was the heiurty co-operation which made Pennsylvania M' onslaught on the crimson line so damaging and their defense so marvelous. Thre was very little end skirting. Harvard's ends being too quick, but .Minds, Woodruff. Wharton, Farrar and L'ffenhoimcr did some of the prettiest line bucking ever seen on a gridiron. The only dark spot on the bright surface was Woodruffs disastrous fumble when Pennsylvania had the ball on Harvard's five-yard line, but on the next line-up Gilbert forced WrightlnRton to make a safety. Weeks, too. must net bo overlooked In the matter of praise, for the success of the brilliant dashes into the line was duo in a great measure to his quick and accurate passing and his excellent Judgment. For Harvard. Cabot, Moulton. Haughton. Dunlop and Wrightington were the bright f articular stars. The two latter were the -est ground gainers for the crimson, and Dunlop was directly responsible for Harvard's only touchdown. Pennsylvania got the ball on her forty-yard line a.l Minds tried to punt into Harvard's territory, but instead punted direct Into the crimson line. . Dunlop was through like a flash and carried the ball down to within a few feet of the coveted goal. On the next line-up Bouve was p.i.jhed through the center for a touchdown. Kach team was penalized twice for offside plays, and once Pennsylvania suffered for foul interference, but outsido of this the game was a grand one to look at and such that enthused the old football cranks and the youngsters. The one disagreeable feature of. tho game was a long wrangle over the referee's decision In calling Minds hack to Harvard's forty-yard line after he had skirted the. Harvard left end for a fifty-yard run and a touchdown. Hlckok claimed that Jack had run out of bounds at the forty-yard line and all. the kicking of Captain Wharton availed nothing. It is estimated that there were 13,000 to 18.C00 persons within the. lnclosure. Tonight university students marched up and down Chestnut and Broad streets, shouting for all they were worth and many a lively encounter took place between followers of the two colleg-s. The teams lined up as follows: Pennsylvania. Fcsltlons. Harvard. Boyle Left end Cabot Uffenhelmer.....Left tacKle Wheeler ...

Harvard freshmen nearly obliterated the Pennsylvania freshmen on Soldiers' field this afternoon, beating tho red and blue 26 points to 0. The weather was cruel, a cold rain freezing as it fell; yet five hundred people saw tho game. Harvard played all around Pennsylvana, and especially in the second half, when touchdowns came with a rapidity that was surprising. The Harvard line held like a stone wall, and what gains Pennsylvania made were due almost entire, ly to the slippery condition of the field. Hatch, Martin and Combs were easily the tars of the game. Wisconsin, B Mlnnenotn, U. MADISON. Wis.. Nov, 21. Five thoucand people at Camp Randall this afternoon t . i ,
witnessed the most stubbornly fought football game ever played In Wisconsin. It was between the elevens from the University of Minnesota and the University of Wisconsin, and the latter won by a score of 6 to 0. gaining its touchdown within five minutes of the end of the second half and kicking goal. The day was raw with a wind from the northwest. This aided the Badgers in the second half. The ball was never close to Wisconsin's goal, but several times the visiters were very hard pressed and only saved themselves by magnificent defensive play. There was much punting and the bail was more often taken from Minnesota on downs than vice versa. Captain Richards of Wisconsin, did the star playing, but as a rule the game was too doggedly contested for brilliant exhibitions. Two Wisconsin men were knocked out, but the casualties were not serious. Played in Icy Knickerbockers. HANOVER, N. H.. Nov. 21. Dartmouth defeated Williams 10 to 0 this afternoon, thereby winning once again the triangle football league championship. The snowstorm and ;t slippery field placed Dartmouth at bad odds with Williams, for the latter team was much the heavier. But tho Dartmouth men worked like tigers and outplayed the Berkshire boys at every point. In tho midst of the game the football suits were stiff with Ice and it was extremely dlfllcult for the players to keep their feet. 1'unting was next to Impossible and plays were generally unsuccessful. Dartmouth made most of her gains by snappy, vicious line bucking through the center and tackles.
Ann Arbor, iTSf Wittenberg, O. ANN ARBOR. Mich.. Nov. 21. To-day's game between Michigan and Wittenberg was a fine exhibition of good football. Michigan won it by a score of 23 to 0, but Wittenberg men played a sportsmanlike and fast game. Michigan's team was Identically the same which will meet the Chicago University team Thanksgiving day. The middle of tho fie'.d was very muddy and the ground and the ball very s.ipptry, but no one was hurt or greatly fatigued. Michigan's interference was superb and it was an apparently Impenetrable mystery to Wittenberg throughout. The Umpire at Terror. SUN BURY, Pa.. Nov. 21. Tho annual football game between Dickinson College and Bucknell ended in a dispute in the second half of the game to-day. Bucknell scored a touchdown and kicked a goal In the lirst half, but in the second half tbe umpire disqualified sevexal players on the Dickinson team and they refused to play. A Player Fatally Tackled. CHICAGO, Nov. 21. During a football game this afternoon David M. Wright, seventeen years old, was tackled around the neck and thrown to the ground, the other pliyers p 1 ng on top of him.

IRELAND'S LAST WORD SPRINGS SATOLLFS COMFLI3IKNTAUY LETTISH ON HIS UNGM1CS. The Arclibluliop Shown that He linn n Friend ut the Vatican Who Will Stand ly Him. ST. PAUL. Minn.. Nov. 21. Under date of Nov. 5 Cardinal 8atlll has written a long letter to Archbishop Ireland, giving over his own signature 'ti summary of the report which he made to the Holy Father on American church affairs. The Archbishop is willing, in view of the late socalled summaries of this report appearing in certain New York papers, to place before the public through the medium of the press some of the matter in Cardinal Satolli's letter which refers to himself. It is as follows: "I arrived In Rome on Saturday, Oct. 31, and tho day following. Sunday, I had the extreme pleasure of l?in admitted to an audience with the Holy Father. .Many things were discussed in the audience. I wish at once to tell you that I did not fall to speak at length to the Holy Father of yourself and to narrate to him how elncerely and loyally you are devoted to the Holy See and to tho person of tho Holy Father himself; with what great zeal and success you labor Incessantly in all things that may be to the advantage of the Catholic Church In the United States. "I added that your zeal and your success will surely increase In the future." In another part of tho letter Cardinal Satolli congratulates the Archbishop on the election of Mr. McKlnley to the presidency and assures him that a bright future is reserved for Bishop Keane, the late rector of tho Washington University. PATCHING THE TEXAS. Cnpt. Glass Think She Will Re II end y for Serveice In Ten Days. WASHINGTON, Nov. 21. Captain Glass, commanding tho battle ship Texas, now in drydock at New York, had a conference at the Navy Department to-day with Secretary Herbert, Assistant McAdoo, Chief Constructor Hlchbom and Engineer in Chief Melville with reference to completing the repairs to that vessel in time for fcer to take part In the proposed evolutions of the north Atlantic fleet. Captain Glass stated at the conference that after full Investigation it was found the Texas had not suffered to any extent by her recent submerging. Tne machinery wab in good order. When he expressed himself so well pleased with tho ship Mr. Herbert jocularly remarked that he was glad to hnd one man pleased with the Texas. It was decided to make minor changes In the turning gear of the turrets. It Is expected that the Texas will be ready for scrvlge within a week or ten days. FERRIS WHEEL INYENT0R lie la N'or Dying: in the Mercy Hospital nt Pittsburgh PITTSBURG. Nov. 21. George W. Ferris, of this city, who achieved fame through the medium of the "great Ferris wheel" at tho world's fair, is lying at the Mercy Hospital In this city in a very serious condition, and the authorities there say that his death is hourly expected. Somo time ago Mr. Ferris met with business reverses and the trouble and worry caused his health to become impaired. Two weeks ago he was taken to the Mercy Hospital and his Illness developed into an enlargement of the liver. The Murderer of Bm um Brader. CINCINNATI. Nov. 21.

NO SCORE FOR QUAKERS
t. OP I. FOOTBALL MlSX PHOVED FINE Jll'D TURTLES YESTERDAY. A Score of IS to O The I. U. Also Blanked the Men Hnlllnff from DePaaw. Last week, with all the conditions favorable to a good game, the University of Indianapolis team played so poorly that defeat was the result. Yesterday, with the field shoe-top deep in mud, the University boys braced up, and by good work, defeated the Karlham College team by a score of 13 to 0. Earlham was considerably lighter than the local men, and as a consequence, were at a great disadvantage on such a muddy field, but U. of I.'s game would have brought it under the wire a winner, no matter what had been the condition of the grounds. U. of I. played with more precision yesterday than In any other game of the year, and those peopi who go to the ball park next Thursday expecting to see the I. A. C. team picnic with the University boys may be disappointed. Earlham deserves great credit for her plucky game. In the second half she fought the University team to a standstill and came within one yard of scoring a touchdown, but that one yard of ground that she couldn't quite get over, showed the metal of her opponents. The teams lined up as foiiows: ' U. ot I. Position. Earlham. Parker Right end Cook. Kettenbach Right tackle....: Pim Kingsbury Right guard Chace, Capt. Kerr Center Hlatt Darrah Left guard Haviland Loop Left tackle Charles Gavin Left end Crawford Roberts, Capt Quarter back Recs Hester Right half back Bray Carry Left half back Blnford Fuikerson Full back Allen Prof. Sacket, umpire; Capt. C. S. Tarlton, referee; Bowen and Lister, linesmen; Maxwell and Stubbs, timers. Touchdowns. Loop (2), Darrah; goa!s. Parker (3). Score, U. of I., 18; Earlham, 0. SMALL AND SELECT AUDIENCE. -It was half past 2, when Rees's toe came In contact with the ball for the opening kick-off. Kettenbach captured the ball for U. of I., and in Just four plays, occupying a minute and a half, Loop made the first touchdown. If a crowd had been present there might have been some cheering, but tho audience that witnessed the game was "small and select." somewhat like a small boys' Sunday-school class the week after Christmas, Again did Rees kick the ball to Kettenbach. who this time gracefully fumbled it. allowing an Earlhamlte to fall on it. On the third down the Quakers were compelled to punt, as their eftorts to advance tho ball by rushing were of no avail. Indianapolis began floundering back through the mud at a lively rate, and It was not long until Loop, who. by the way, played about a 24-carat game, made the second touchdown by a long run around Eariham's left end. Parker again kicked goal, a difficult feat with such a slippery ball, and the score was a dozen to nothing. The players had become so mud-begrlmed that it was impossible to tell who was who. It was seen that the Indianapolis boys, distinguishable by their position on the field, were slowly nearlng the Earlham line for a third touchdown, and just as time was called, the mountain of mud was pushed over. The man who made the touchdown was brought out and after having his face washed. It was seen that it was Darrah. Goal followed and the score was IS to 0. which was final. The only excitement of the game occurred In the second half when by a fumble Earlham secured the ball on U. of I.'s three yard line. Buck and twist and squirm as hard as she might. Eurlham could only advance the oval two yards and the ball went to Indianapolis on downs. Manager Harry Smith became so Jubilant at this point that he attempted to give the local yell. He might as well have tried to sing Handel's "Messiah." The game would have been funny no matter how it had gone. To see the players walolwing around in the mud until they looked as If they had been caught in a cave-In. gave the spectators, encased In clean linen, and wellbrushed clothes, an exalted opinion of their cleanliness. It will actually take some of the players a week to make themselves presentable, and If "cleaffliness be next to godliness." the participants in yesterday's game are at present in a pretty bad way. All the Indianapolis boys did well, especially Parker. Hester and Loop. Loop made several long runs in which he brushed the Quakers off like boarding-house flies. Parker gave the signals and ran the team well. For Earlham. Capt. Chace, Charles and Allen did the best work. It was the opinion of all that tho latter needed a haircut and a shampoo, but "there were others." IJK PAl'W WAS IlLAMvED. State University Eleven Wins by a Hnndiomr Score of 12 to O. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BLOOMINGTON, Ind.. Nov. 21. The crimson and white of old I. U. waves triumphant to-night over the once victorious yellow of DePauw. The football elevens of the two institutions m?t in final battle today, and for the first time In the history of games between them Indiana has scored a decisive and overwhelming victory. Both teams went upon the field confident of winning. The gridiron was a sea of mud and water, standing in pools ,in many places over it. Indiana kicked off and DcPauw chose the south goal. I. U. soon gained the ball on a fumble, and by a series of mass plays through the line, pushed over DePauw's goal line for the first touchdown in seven and three-quarter minutes from call of time. This was the signal for the wildest scene of enthusiasm ever witnessed on university ground. The few minutes' play had clearly demonstrated the superiority of the I. U. eleven, and their supporters were wild with Joy at the enticlpution of victory. Beardsley kicked a beautiful goal. Score, Indiana, 6; DePauw, 0. The revolving wedge and mass plays wtre employed by I. U. to procure their second touchdown. DePauw secured the ball on downs; but few times during the game, and was forced to resort to frequent kicks to keep the ball out of close proximity to their goal line. Hunt secured the second touchdown in one minute und a half before tho expiration of time of the lirst half. Beardsley converted tne toucndown, and the score stood 12 to 0. The second half was exciting from start to finish, but neither side succeeded in reaching the coveted goal. The ball was almost continually in DePauw's territory, and several times a touchdown for Indiana seemed inevitable, but the visitors woud make a supreme efiort. and Indiana was kept from further scoring. For Indiana Youtsler. Hunt, Binfort, Eagleson. King. Ray and Endlcott played a magnificent game. While each one of the eleven are deserving of the highest praise. Roller, Williamson, Sandy and Shierman carried off the honors for DePauw. DePauw was simply outclassed by the Indiana eleven. The line-up: Indiana. Position. DePauw. Sheek Right end.....

Bryan's majority over all candidates is 7.477. A striking feature of the election is that there were 18.754 more votes cast for the presidential tickets than for the State tickets. The total vote for John W. Leedy for Covernor Is 1G5.209: Morrill. 13S.130, Leedy'a plurality over Morrill being 7,oiy. Leedvs majority over all candidates is 3,123.

Should Indianapolis close the Ohiostreet grounds the ball club will probably move on east a mile or so. Tommy Corcoran says he will have something to say about going to Cincinnati. He is holding out for a iwrtion of that bonus. Childs will not have to eat snowballs this winter, for he won over 11.090 on the election. Cleveland's fat second baseman is therefore not likely to grow thinner. If Indianapolis gets BIHy Gray next season there will be general rejoicing among the followers of tho game here. As an allround player Gray would have no equal In the Western League. Theodore Breitensteln. Perry Werden and Charley Frank.' the well-known ball players, left last night by boat for a hunting and fishing expedition down the Mississippi river, which will last until Christmas. President So'den heard nothing but words of the highest praise for Stahl. the outfielder that Boston has drafted from Baltimore. Opinion appeared to be unanimous that he was a great player and that Boston had made no mistake In getting him. The Boston team will probably train at Savannah, Ga., for next season. Manager Selee thinks that is the best spot for his players to get the kinks out of their muscles, and expects to finish at least first or second In the league race next season. President Von der Ahe negotiated for Dolan while at the league meeting in Chicago, but when all arrangements were completed for the deal the "boss" president did not have the necessary collateral to pay for the crack pitcher from Beantown, and the deal was off for the time being. Hart, of Chicago, who, with Hanlon and Reach, comprise the rules committee, says that he and his fellow-members will hold several meetings this winter to discuss important questions and that they may report favorably on several changes He says that the committee may discuss coaching, but it is not likely that it will be abolished. It was the same national board that Colonel Rogers abused that made It possible for the Philadelphia Club to build Its magnificent stands and clubhouse at but little expense, for this national board guaranteed the Philadelphia Club permission to pay only 12 cents to visiting clubs to every person admitted to games, in order that the club might not lose much by the fire which destroyed the Philadelphia grandstand in 1804. The case of McCreery, the Louisville's much-sought-after outfielder, recalls that of Tip O'Neill, the famous left fielder of the old St. Louis Browns. Comlskey signed O'Neill on the strength of his reputation as a twirler. In his day she was one of the most powerful batsmen In the American Association and a fair outfielder. McCreery signed with Louisville to pitch, and was played in the outfield as a substitute. He did so well, particularly at the bat, that McOunnlgle kept him in right field permanently. In ninety games his batting average was .SS. MOUTH PRIZE FIGHTING
FITZSIMMOXS'S HACKER ACCUSES COItBETT OF DODGING. Clowe of the AH-Snuinier ItnclnR at Cincinnati Grnnnnn Plnnslne Asaln Sporting Xews. SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 21.-Jullan and Bob Fltzslmmons are bewildered at the number of offers which are pouring In on them in connection with the Corbett fight. They say they cannot understand why clubs and individuals should, offer purses for limited fights when they " have both stated plainly that they only countenance a finish contest. Julian says: "It is plain to be seen that Corbett Is behind the various clubs, and every time I say 'no to the offer it tickles him to death. To save ourselves being placed in a false light, and to show the public that we Fltzslmmons and myself are willing and anxious to bring about a meeting with Corbett, 1 have written to the latter and to the manager or all clubs who have made offers for the light, stating I will wait till the 2Sth of November, a week from Saturday, and If nobody comes forward with an offer for a finish fight I will ucrept tho best offer made by any one club. If we cannot arrange for a finish fight wo will consent to a fight for a limited number of rounds." The Grand Itnptd Frnnchlse. The Detroit Tribune has the following concerning the sale of the Grand Rapids franchise: "Did 'Deacon Ellis sglve the Western League a 'cold hand when he pleaded so valiantly for a four years' franchise and succeeded In winning over the other magnates at the Victoria a week ago? This is the Question that is agitating the other franchise holders now and they may enter largely Into the vote on the change. Not that there is a semblance of objection to Messrs. Leadley and Glenalvin personally for they are more valuable men to the league than would Kills be. but if the Grand Rapids man had something up his sleeve Comlskey, Klllllea and Van Derbeck will dance that old three-handed reel In which every one takes a kick at the other. .. , "On Thursday afternoon the Western League In session gave Messrs. Ellis and IjOftus one-year franchises apiece. Ellis worked hard, as did also Loftus, and along about 2 o'clock Friday morning the league voted four-year franchises to them. W. F. C. Golt. of Indlanapols. cried for mercy when it was proposed, but Comlskey poured hot shot into him. Klllllea took him over the Jumps ai-d Manning handed In a few. Ellis had made a strong plea and had told what he would do if he knew he would be protected. How he would make Inroads into the National League lists of young bench warmers and have a team at Grand Rapids that would cause patrons to forget the uselessness of the gold bugs and the yellow jackets. Loftus wanted four years and argued carnestlj'. saying he would cut loose with considerable change if he knew he had a certainty, and after all of this the admission was practically forced down the throat of Golt and Goodenow. the latter being a sort of a silent partner In the rebels camp. ' Then the league has had no suspicions of Ellis's desires to sell. In fact, he corralled McFarland and Cassldy, tried to secure other players and moved about like a new man, being on the scene early Friday morning, while th revelers who had given him three additional years wre clinging to their pillows. Had It been known that he was liable to sell the franchise It may be stated positively that the right for the extra vears would never have been glen without the best assurances that Ellis's successor had a knife In his belt for John T. Brush and a tomahawk for Goodenow. "The question of sustaining the sale will depend largely on the attitude of the purchasers toward the big six, or tho big five, for Elll3's absence makes the combine one shy If It can be shown conclusively that Messrs. Leadley and Glenalvin will join a circle with Messrs. Van Defbeck, Killilea. Manning. Comlskey and lftus. all well and good, otherwise 'heraus mlt 'em. The Western League clubt are bound by a fiveyear agreement which is as solid as the national agreement, and It cannot be violated. No club can change hands without unanimous consent, and in fact many things are guided in the same way." Cincinnati Rnclne Season Over. CINCINNATI. Nov. 21. The long autumn meeting of tho Latonia Jockey Club closed to-day, the forty-fifth day. Considering the fact that Cincinnati has had practically continuous racing since spring, the seven weeks just ended has been remarkably successful. The attendance has been surprisingly large, and the racing of high character. . perfectly managed and free from scandal. Financially it has Droved the best meeting given about Cincinnati this year. The club's officials. Secretary E. C. Hopper and Judges John J. Carter. C. F. McLean and 1 P. Tarlton, express the greatest satisfaction with the season of perfectly clean sport, the best fall meeting ever given in the West. There were tlx races given to-day, and there were long prices against five winners. Old Center, 8 to 1; Satsuma, 10 to 1; Zaldivar. 8 to 1: Yellow Rose. 5 tq 1. and Double Dummy. 10 to 1 or better, won. Talver took the Becond at C to 5. Rain began to spoil the track before the third race, in the steeplechase, the heavily backed favorite. Lawyer, was carried around the first Jump by Partisan and was unable to make up the lost ground. Aristocrat looked a winner, but fell at thfl last hurdle. He scrambled to his feet and finished first without a rider. The finish in the last race was one of the prettiest of the meeting, four heads apart on tho post. Blar Billiard Tournament Off. CHICAGO. Nov. 21.

Mace came In on the Etruria and was driven direct to a hotel, where he will remain for several days. He is in good condition and will not need much training to ger him ready for his boxing exhibition with Prof. Mike Donovan In December. Mace is a product of the old school of bareknuckle boxers. He bore the reputation of being probably the most scientinc boxer in the world until Charley Mitchell whipped him. HIley Gran nan Pluylnf? Again. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 21. Riley Grannan, the noted plunger, made his return appearance on California tracks at the Oakland race course yesterday. The injunction of the New York Jockey Club seemed to cut no figure with him, as he proceeded to plunge as of old, and netted a neat sum when Sir Play defeated Moylan. Barred by the Eastern tracks, Grannan is protected by the more liberal laws of California, and the associations here are bound to extend to him the same privileges granted to all others who desire to witness racing.

A famous painting shows the infant Napoleon in the chamber of his birth, and show his mother watching over him. The mothrr of Napoleon was a strong, healthy, active woman. She brought into the world a family of smart, handsome, healthy children. Without health and strength Napoleon would never have risen above the position in which he was born. His mother could not give him wealth or high station in life, but she gave something better. She gave him the ability to secure these things for himself. She equipped htm with a strong body and a clear intellect. Every mother may do as much for her son. The first step in this direction is perfect healthbr herself. Tcrfect health ma womanly way. She must take thought for the most important and dedicate organs of the body. She must eep them strongly healthy for the performance of the greatest and most wonderful work in the world. Women do not sufficiently appreciate the importance of health and carefulness. This is shown" by the dreadfu! prevalence of so-called "Female Complaint." Every woman may be strong and healthy by taking Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is not a cure-all. It is intended to cure just one kind of disease, arid tt cures it It works directly on the female organs, cleanses, strengthens and makes them healthy. It makes weak women strong, and if it is taken during the period of gestation, it insures health for the child ; and, at the time of parturition, comparative freedom from the pains and dangers erroneously believed to be unavoidable. The physiology of women, in health and disease, is contained in Dr. rierce's great work, the ''Common Sense Medical Adviser."
